Right Angle Bracket for Pangolins Actuator

[andy_con]

im making some mounts for a forum member for the pangolin actuator -

http://www.pangolin.com/VRAD/

just wondering if i should code it up on the cnc encase there is a general interest from others

the L bracket would be made from 6mm thick aluminium and would cost £8 each

if anyone is interested let me know

I'd be interested, preferably if you could make a version that would support a 1/4-20 mount for the US folks

Thanks,
Greg

ive not got a clue what a 1/4-20 is?

[Displaser]

It's the standard hole size for optical breadboards here in the US (1/4 inch, 20 threads per inch).

[andy_con]

im assuming your refering to the mounting slot?

1/4 inch = 6.35mm, fook me! why do you americans need to use such a big bolt? surely for such a small mount a 4mm screw is fine?

[Displaser]

Yep... the mounting slot.

1/4 inch? Beats me, as it does seem kinda extreme for most of what I am bolting down to a breadboard.

It's the standard thread size for optical bread boards.

so, with so many folks here related to pangolin directly or indirectly, wouldn't it make sense to run a nice group buy for the VRADs to go along with those nice angle brackets?

i can see a lot of nice beamtables springing to life after this

andy, i know it is not your style, but is there any chance to have them anodised?

[ArcDevilz]

The price break for V-Rads starts at quantity 25. Not sure where the next price break is.

fair enough

andy, i know it is not your style, but is there any chance to have them anodised?

could but if its not a large amount it may really bump the cost up

how many are people interested in?
